I honestly half agree with Micheal here. While I agree that there should be safety precautions put in place to contain the virus, I also agree that some people are taking this way too far than they should be.

Like, packing in stores to get supplies in a frenzy is provably one of the most dangerous things one can do ironically enough, and yet, here's all these people doing just that.

In addition, I do believe the media is blowing this way out of proportion. Then again, they want the clicks because is brings them their money. They are a corporation right now.

With that said, I do understand with closing large public places. It's not safe for bars, clubs, and resturants to be open, especially in more populated areas. Campuses too. It absolutely sucks though, I know quite a bit of people affected by these cancellations, but I get it.

Btw Boulderness. **** you back to you. Don't think for a second I would put movies over my family because I wouldn't. :mad:
You sure buddy boy? After all, only the elderly and people with poor health systems are actually in danger.

I wasn't finding the right words (Notably the seniors and people with health issues being the most vulnerable). My point was the hypocrisy and irrationally of humanity and was just saying if this is how were gonna react and how governments are too may as well just cull half of humanity while were at it, not to say we should and would because I would oppose to it. Its no wonder we'll probably doom ourselves much sooner if this is how we react to every pandemic regardless of its mortality rate.
Idk. Saying governments should just kill half of us off is a pretty ****ed up thing to say for what's ultimately a handful of idiots that don't make up the majority of humanity

Listen again moron. I wasn't saying they should but if its how humanity reacts may as well not to they should do it because I'd oppose it.

**** you again thinking I'll take movies over my family. I get the concern but people are blowing this out of proportion for the most part and that's what annoys me.

I also told you I couldn't find the right words. Did you suddenly ignore that notably the senior and people with health issues?

That's what I was trying to say and I can see Spikester trying to say I think his words got too sharp on this.

Like for all of us, we are hitting the roughest waters in our lifetimes and we don't what the hell is going to happen in a least a hundred different ways.

We don't even know if this virus could mutate or not, some of us will lose people we care about and some of us here could even die with some health issues.

Also @Bolderousness Michael the Spikester Michael the Spikester refrain guys. Come on. We don't want this descending, speaking for most of us. A debate is one thing, insults are another. Take a breather guys.

Dude if you want me and a few others can always try and talk to you somewhere else like Discord.
After reading whatever's been going on in here today, that's certainly something to consider. May send a group message to you, @JDCabrera and a couple others later if you wanna set up some kind of chat.

Very well. This whole thing is just taking an toll on me and probably just all of us. Plus I got peeved when he jumped to the conclusion I'd take movies over my family any day when that's not the case.

I apologize Boulderness. Like I mentioned some of the stuff I said it wasn't the right words I was looking for. Hope we can let this pass. If not I understand if you don't like me no more.

Yes the hoarding is stupid. Yes the news is sensationalist garbage. I agree. If that's all you were saying, holy **** you need to just say it

Apologies once more. I should also note I'm not exactly the best when it comes to wording things right. Which is why this probably went on as long as it did. Hope we can put things aside now.

I'll forgive you until you start it again. For now, if you wanna rant on stupid hoarders, just post **** like this.

I just ask and wish people to be more level-headed is all when it comes to buying stuff in moments like this.

Right now I'm pretty hesitant in going out tbh.

I did too.

Had a really meh night and spent a lot of time with my phone, so probably that's why I did so.
For me, I just had some trouble falling asleep is all. Then again, that's been a pretty inconsistent problem for me sometimes.

BTW, Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I might change up a pfp for the occasion.

Ah St Patricks Day which means only one thing.


Just don't disturb an Irishman's Drink! Or you'll end up in the hospital.

Father Ted is one of the best shows on TV.

On a more concerning note, Sakurai's new famitsu column has been leaked (again). And this time, it's discussing about the Corona Virus and how it's affecting DLC development.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Given how the full thing obviously is available to everyone yet, take what you read of this very lightly.​

Given work might be closing due to this and everything is starting to follow here to get prepared when we might get cases. I think I'm gonna be self-isolating myself at home for the next two weeks.

Hope my dad's job does the same thing.

Understandable. It can take as long as it needs. The well being of everyone is more important. Sakurai can finally have his vacation too for that matter.
